      --sout-x264-keyint=<integer [-2147483648 .. 2147483647]>
 
                                Maximum GOP size
 
          Sets maximum interval between IDR-frames.Larger values save bits,
 
          thus improving quality for a given bitrate at the cost of seeking
 
          precision. Use -1 for infinite.
 
      --sout-x264-min-keyint=<integer [-2147483648 .. 2147483647]>
 
                                 Minimum GOP size
 
          Sets minimum interval between IDR-frames. In H.264, I-frames do not
 
          necessarily bound a closed GOP because it is allowable for a P-frame
 
          to be predicted from more frames than just the one frame before it
 
          (also see reference frame option). Therefore, I-frames are not
 
          necessarily seekable. IDR-frames restrict subsequent P-frames from
 
          referring to any frame prior to the IDR-frame.
 
If scenecuts appear
 
          within this interval, they are still encoded as I-frames, but do not
 
          start a new GOP.

      --sout-x264-scenecut=<integer [-1 .. 100]>
 
                                Extra I-frames aggressivity
 
          Scene-cut detection. Controls how aggressively to insert extra
 
          I-frames. With small values of scenecut, the codec often has to force
 
           an I-frame when it would exceed keyint. Good values of scenecut may
 
          find a better location for the I-frame. Large values use more
 
          I-frames than necessary, thus wasting bits. -1 disables scene-cut
 
          detection, so I-frames are inserted only every other keyint frames,
 
          which probably leads to ugly encoding artifacts. Range 1 to 100.

          possibly before an I-frame.Range 0 to 2.
 
      --sout-x264-b-bias=<integer [-100 .. 100]>
 
                                Influence (bias) B-frames usage
 
          Bias the choice to use B-frames. Positive values cause more B-frames,
 
          negative values cause less B-frames.
 
      --sout-x264-bpyramid={none,strict,normal}
 
                                 Keep some B-frames as references

VLC command-line help for Windows users about VLC media player
VLC-0-8-6 command-line help, VLC-0-9-x command-line help, VLC-1-0-x command-line help, VLC-1-1-x command-line help, VLC-2-1-x command-line help

Running the command

vlc --help

will create a .TXT file containing all the command-line options.

You can also use this to get more exhaustive list:

vlc -H

If you look for help, on a particular module, you can also use

vlc -p module --advanced --help-verbose

--help-verbose explains things. Omit this option if too much output is generated

To view this without leaving the command-line in Windows, use the following command (assuming you installed it in the default folder):

more "%PROGRAMFILES%\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc-help.txt"

This trick uses the command-line command more to show the file screen-by-screen. Pressing spacebar will advance the output a screen at a time, and pressing enter will advance the output one line at a time.

Undocumented option:

-vv     "Verbose verbose". Verbose output (debug infos can be displayed by selecting "Debug logging" interface under View->Add Interface menu)

Here's the output of vlc -H of vlc-4.0.0-dev under Windows. If the text is too small, pressing Ctrl and + together in most browsers will increase the font size (reset with Ctrl and 0 together).

Usage: vlc [options] [stream] ...
You can specify multiple streams on the commandline.
They will be enqueued in the playlist.
The first item specified will be played first.

Options-styles:
  --option  A global option that is set for the duration of the program.
   -option  A single letter version of a global --option.
   :option  An option that only applies to the stream directly before it
            and that overrides previous settings.

Stream MRL syntax:
  [[access][/demux]://]URL[#[title][:chapter][-[title][:chapter]]]
  [:option=value ...]

  Many of the global --options can also be used as MRL specific :options.
  Multiple :option=value pairs can be specified.

URL syntax:
  file:///path/file              Plain media file
  http://host[:port]/file        HTTP URL
  ftp://host[:port]/file         FTP URL
  mms://host[:port]/file         MMS URL
  screen://                      Screen capture
  dvd://[device]                 DVD device
  vcd://[device]                 VCD device
  cdda://[device]                Audio CD device
  udp://[[<source address>]@[<bind address>][:<bind port>]]
                                 UDP stream sent by a streaming server
  vlc://pause:<seconds>          Pause the playlist for a certain time
  vlc://quit                     Special item to quit VLC

                                 (default disabled)
          If set to true, the bridge will discard all input elementary streams
          except if it doesn't receive data from another bridge-in. This can be
          used to configure a place holder stream when the real source breaks.
          Source and placeholder streams should have the same format.

                                 (default enabled)
          If enabled, switching between the placeholder and the normal stream
          will only occur on I frames. This will remove artifacts on stream
          switching at the expense of a slightly longer delay, depending on the
          frequence of I frames in the streams.

          Custom SAT>IP channel list URL

 Network streams (SAP) (sap)
      --sap-addr=<string>        SAP multicast address
          The SAP module normally chooses itself the right addresses to listen
          to. However, you can specify a specific address.
      --sap-timeout=<integer>    SAP timeout (seconds)
          Delay after which SAP items get deleted if no new announcement is
          received.

                                 (default enabled)
          This enables actual parsing of the announces by the SAP module.
          Otherwise, all announcements are parsed by the "live555" (RTP/RTSP)
          module.
      --sap-strict, --no-sap-strict 
                                 SAP Strict mode
                                 (default disabled)
          When this is set, the SAP parser will discard some non-compliant
          announcements.

                                 (default disabled)
          Normally the packetizer would sync on the next full frame. This flags
          instructs the packetizer to sync on the first Intra Frame found.

 TS muxer (libdvbpsi) (mux_ts)
      --sout-ts-standard={dvb,atsc}

          Assign a fixed Transport Stream ID.
      --sout-ts-netid=<integer>  NET ID
          Assign a fixed Network ID (for SDT table)
      --sout-ts-program-pmt=<string> 
                                 PMT Program numbers
          Assign a program number to each PMT. This requires "Set PID to ID of
          ES" to be enabled.
      --sout-ts-es-id-pid, --no-sout-ts-es-id-pid 
                                 Set PID to ID of ES
                                 (default disabled)
          Sets PID to the ID if the incoming ES. This is for use with
          --ts-es-id-pid, and allows having the same PIDs in the input and
          output streams.
      --sout-ts-muxpmt=<string>  Mux PMT (requires --sout-ts-es-id-pid)
          Define the pids to add to each pmt. This requires "Set PID to ID of
          ES" to be enabled.
      --sout-ts-sdtdesc=<string> SDT Descriptors (requires --sout-ts-es-id-pid)
          Defines the descriptors of each SDT. This requires "Set PID to ID of
          ES" to be enabled.
      --sout-ts-alignment, --no-sout-ts-alignment 
                                 Data alignment
                                 (default enabled)
          Enforces alignment of all access units on PES boundaries. Disabling
          this might save some bandwidth but introduce incompatibilities.
      --sout-ts-shaping=<integer> 
                                 Shaping delay (ms)
          Cut the stream in slices of the given duration, and ensure a constant
          bitrate between the two boundaries. This avoids having huge bitrate
          peaks, especially for reference frames.
      --sout-ts-use-key-frames, --no-sout-ts-use-key-frames 
                                 Use keyframes
                                 (default disabled)
          If enabled, and shaping is specified, the TS muxer will place the
          boundaries at the end of I pictures. In that case, the shaping
          duration given by the user is a worse case used when no reference
          frame is available. This enhances the efficiency of the shaping
          algorithm, since I frames are usually the biggest frames in the
          stream.
      --sout-ts-pcr=<integer>    PCR interval (ms)
          Set at which interval PCRs (Program Clock Reference) will be sent (in

          Delay the DTS (decoding time stamps) and PTS (presentation
          timestamps) of the data in the stream, compared to the PCRs. This
          allows for some buffering inside the client decoder.

 H.264/MPEG-4 Part 10/AVC encoder (x264) (x264)
      --sout-x264-keyint=<integer> 
                                 Maximum GOP size
          Sets maximum interval between IDR-frames. Larger values save bits,
          thus improving quality for a given bitrate at the cost of seeking
          precision. Use -1 for infinite.
      --sout-x264-min-keyint=<integer> 
                                 Minimum GOP size
          Sets minimum interval between IDR-frames. In H.264, I-frames do not
          necessarily bound a closed GOP because it is allowable for a P-frame
          to be predicted from more frames than just the one frame before it
          (also see reference frame option). Therefore, I-frames are not
          necessarily seekable. IDR-frames restrict subsequent P-frames from
          referring to any frame prior to the IDR-frame.  If scenecuts appear
          within this interval, they are still encoded as I-frames, but do not
          start a new GOP.
      --sout-x264-opengop, --no-sout-x264-opengop 
                                 Use recovery points to close GOPs
                                 (default disabled)
          use open GOP, for bluray compatibility use also bluray-compat option
      --sout-x264-bluray-compat, --no-sout-x264-bluray-compat 
                                 Enable compatibility hacks for Blu-ray support
                                 (default disabled)
          Enable hacks for Blu-ray support, this doesn't enforce every aspect
          of Blu-ray compatibility e.g. resolution, framerate, level
      --sout-x264-scenecut=<integer [-1 .. 100]> 
                                 Extra I-frames aggressivity
          Scene-cut detection. Controls how aggressively to insert extra
          I-frames. With small values of scenecut, the codec often has to force
          an I-frame when it would exceed keyint. Good values of scenecut may
          find a better location for the I-frame. Large values use more
          I-frames than necessary, thus wasting bits. -1 disables scene-cut
          detection, so I-frames are inserted only every other keyint frames,
          which probably leads to ugly encoding artifacts. Range 1 to 100.
      --sout-x264-bframes=<integer [0 .. 16]> 
                                 B-frames between I and P
          Number of consecutive B-frames between I and P-frames. Range 1 to 16.
      --sout-x264-b-adapt=<integer [0 .. 2]> 
                                 Adaptive B-frame decision
          Force the specified number of consecutive B-frames to be used, except
          possibly before an I-frame. Range 0 to 2.
      --sout-x264-b-bias=<integer [-100 .. 100]> 
                                 Influence (bias) B-frames usage
          Bias the choice to use B-frames. Positive values cause more B-frames,
          negative values cause less B-frames.
      --sout-x264-bpyramid={none,strict,normal} 
                                 Keep some B-frames as references
          Allows B-frames to be used as references for predicting other frames.
          Keeps the middle of 2+ consecutive B-frames as a reference, and
          reorders frame appropriately.  - none: Disabled  - strict: Strictly
          hierarchical pyramid  - normal: Non-strict (not Blu-ray compatible) 
      --sout-x264-cabac, --no-sout-x264-cabac 
                                 CABAC
                                 (default enabled)
          CABAC (Context-Adaptive Binary Arithmetic Coding). Slightly slows
          down encoding and decoding, but should save 10 to 15% bitrate.
      --sout-x264-fullrange, --no-sout-x264-fullrange 
                                 Use fullrange instead of TV colorrange
                                 (default disabled)
          TV-range is usually used colorrange, defining this to true will

          I-frames; if IdrInterval=0, then every I-frame is an IDR-frame. If
          IdrInterval=1, then every other I-frame is an IDR-frame, etc. For
          MPEG2, IdrInterval defines sequence header interval in terms of
          I-frames. If IdrInterval=N, SDK inserts the sequence header before
          every Nth I-frame. If IdrInterval=0 (default), SDK inserts the
          sequence header once at the beginning of the stream.

      --sout-qsv-accuracy=<integer [0 .. 100]> 
                                 Accuracy of RateControl
          Tolerance in percentage of the 'avbr'  (Average Variable BitRate)
          method. (e.g. 10 with a bitrate of 800  kbps means the encoder tries
          not to  go above 880 kbps and under  730 kbps. The targeted accuracy
          is only reached after a certained  convergence period. See the
          convergence parameter
      --sout-qsv-convergence=<integer> 
                                 Convergence time of 'avbr' RateControl
          Number of 100 frames before the 'avbr' rate control method reaches
          the requested bitrate with the requested accuracy. See the accuracy
          parameter.
      --sout-qsv-num-slice=<integer> 
                                 Number of slices per frame

          Defines the number of parallel encoding operations before we
          synchronise the result. Higher numbers may result on better
          throughput depending on hardware. MPEG2 needs at least 1 here.

 Kate overlay decoder (kate)
 Kate is a codec for text and image based overlays.
The Tiger rendering library is needed to render complex Kate streams, but VLC can still render static text and image based subtitles if it is not available.
Note that changing settings below will not take effect until a new stream is played. This will hopefully be fixed soon.
      --kate-formatted, --no-kate-formatted 
                                 Formatted Subtitles
                                 (default enabled)
          Kate streams allow for text formatting. VLC partly implements this,
          but you can choose to disable all formatting. Note that this has no
          effect is rendering via Tiger is enabled.

          Chorus
      --synth-gain=<float [0.000000 .. 10.000000]> 
                                 Synthesis gain
          This gain is applied to synthesis output. High values may cause
          saturation when many notes are played at a time.
      --synth-polyphony=<integer [1 .. 65535]> 
                                 Polyphony
          The polyphony defines how many voices can be played at a time. Larger
          values require more processing power.
      --synth-reverb, --no-synth-reverb 
                                 Reverb

                                 Subpicture position
          You can enforce the subpicture position on the video (0=center,
          1=left, 2=right, 4=top, 8=bottom, you can also use combinations of
          these values, e.g. 6=top-right).
      --dvbsub-x=<integer>       Decoding X coordinate
          X coordinate of the rendered subtitle
      --dvbsub-y=<integer>       Decoding Y coordinate
          Y coordinate of the rendered subtitle
      --sout-dvbsub-x=<integer>  Encoding X coordinate

                                 (default disabled)
          Save the raw codec data if you have selected/forced the dummy decoder
          in the main options.

 DTS Coherent Acoustics audio decoder (dca)
      --dts-dynrng, --no-dts-dynrng 
                                 DTS dynamic range compression
                                 (default enabled)
          Dynamic range compression makes the loud sounds softer, and the soft
          sounds louder, so you can more easily listen to the stream in a noisy
          environment without disturbing anyone. If you disable the dynamic
          range compression the playback will be more adapted to a movie
          theater or a listening room.

          Prefer visual artifacts instead of missing frames
      --avcodec-error-resilience=<integer> 
                                 Error resilience
          libavcodec can do error resilience. However, with a buggy encoder
          (such as the ISO MPEG-4 encoder from M$) this can produce a lot of
          errors. Valid values range from 0 to 4 (0 disables all errors
          resilience).
      --avcodec-workaround-bugs=<integer> 
                                 Workaround bugs
          Try to fix some bugs: 1  autodetect 2  old msmpeg4 4  xvid interlaced
          8  ump4  16 no padding 32 ac vlc 64 Qpel chroma. This must be the sum
          of the values. For example, to fix "ac vlc" and "ump4", enter 40.
      --avcodec-hurry-up, --no-avcodec-hurry-up 
                                 Hurry up
                                 (default enabled)
          The decoder can partially decode or skip frame(s) when there is not
          enough time. It's useful with low CPU power but it can produce
          distorted pictures.
      --avcodec-skip-frame={-1 (None), 0 (Default), 1 (Non-ref), 2 (Bidir), 3 (Non-key), 4 (All)} 
                                 Skip frame (default=0)
          Force skipping of frames to speed up decoding (-1=None, 0=Default,
          1=B-frames, 2=P-frames, 3=B+P frames, 4=all frames).
      --avcodec-skip-idct=<integer [-1 .. 4]> 
                                 Skip idct (default=0)
          Force skipping of idct to speed up decoding for frame types (-1=None,
          0=Default, 1=B-frames, 2=P-frames, 3=B+P frames, 4=all frames).
      --avcodec-fast, --no-avcodec-fast 
                                 Allow speed tricks
                                 (default disabled)
          Allow non specification compliant speedup tricks. Faster but
          error-prone.
      --avcodec-skiploopfilter={0 (None), 1 (Non-ref), 2 (Bidir), 3 (Non-key), 4 (All)} 
                                 Skip the loop filter for H.264 decoding
          Skipping the loop filter (aka deblocking) usually has a detrimental
          effect on quality. However it provides a big speedup for high
          definition streams.
      --avcodec-debug=<integer>  Debug mask
          Set FFmpeg debug mask
      --avcodec-codec=<string>   Codec name

          Internal libavcodec codec name
      --sout-avcodec-hq={rd,bits,simple} 
                                 Quality level
          Quality level for the encoding of motions vectors (this can slow down
          the encoding very much).
      --sout-avcodec-keyint=<integer>

                                 (default disabled)
          The encoder can make on-the-fly quality tradeoffs if your CPU can't
          keep up with the encoding rate. It will disable trellis quantization,
          then the rate distortion of motion vectors (hq), and raise the noise
          reduction threshold to ease the encoder's task.
      --sout-avcodec-interlace, --no-sout-avcodec-interlace 
                                 Interlaced encoding

          Enable the pre-motion estimation algorithm.
      --sout-avcodec-rc-buffer-size=<integer> 
                                 Rate control buffer size
          Rate control buffer size (in kbytes). A bigger buffer will allow for
          better rate control, but will cause a delay in the stream.
      --sout-avcodec-rc-buffer-aggressivity=<float [-340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000 .. 340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000]>

      --sout-avcodec-noise-reduction=<integer> 
                                 Noise reduction
          Enable a simple noise reduction algorithm to lower the encoding
          length and bitrate, at the expense of lower quality frames.
      --sout-avcodec-mpeg4-matrix, --no-sout-avcodec-mpeg4-matrix 
                                 MPEG4 quantization matrix
                                 (default disabled)
          Use the MPEG4 quantization matrix for MPEG2 encoding. This generally
          yields a better looking picture, while still retaining the
          compatibility with standard MPEG2 decoders.

      --a52-dynrng, --no-a52-dynrng 
                                 A/52 dynamic range compression
                                 (default enabled)
          Dynamic range compression makes the loud sounds softer, and the soft
          sounds louder, so you can more easily listen to the stream in a noisy
          environment without disturbing anyone. If you disable the dynamic
          range compression the playback will be more adapted to a movie
          theater or a listening room.

 Volume normalizer (normvol)
      --norm-buff-size=<integer> Number of audio buffers
          This is the number of audio buffers on which the power measurement is
          made. A higher number of buffers will increase the response time of
          the filter to a spike but will make it less sensitive to short
          variations.
      --norm-max-level=<float [-340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000 .. 340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000]> 
                                 Maximal volume level
          If the average power over the last N buffers is higher than this
          value, the volume will be normalized. This value is a positive
          floating point number. A value between 0.5 and 10 seems sensible.

          Use sequential numbers instead of timestamps for snapshot numbering
      --snapshot-width=<integer> Video snapshot width
          You can enforce the width of the video snapshot. By default it will
          keep the original width (-1). Using 0 will scale the width to keep
          the aspect ratio.
      --snapshot-height=<integer> 
                                 Video snapshot height
          You can enforce the height of the video snapshot. By default it will

          the aspect ratio.
   Window properties:
      --width=<integer>          Video width
          You can enforce the video width. By default (-1) VLC will adapt to
          the video characteristics.
      --height=<integer>         Video height
          You can enforce the video height. By default (-1) VLC will adapt to
          the video characteristics.

                                 Custom crop ratios list
          Comma separated list of crop ratios which will be added in the
          interface's crop ratios list.
      --aspect-ratio=<string>    Source aspect ratio
          This forces the source aspect ratio. For instance, some DVDs claim to
          be 16:9 while they are actually 4:3. This can also be used as a hint
          for VLC when a movie does not have aspect ratio information. Accepted
          formats are x:y (4:3, 16:9, etc.) expressing the global image aspect,
          or a float value (1.25, 1.3333, etc.) expressing pixel squareness.
      --autoscale, --no-autoscale 
                                 Video Auto Scaling

          Let the video scale to fit a given window or fullscreen.
      --monitor-par=<string>     Monitor pixel aspect ratio
          This forces the monitor aspect ratio. Most monitors have square
          pixels (1:1). If you have a 16:9 screen, you might need to change
          this to 4:3 in order to keep proportions.
      --custom-aspect-ratios=<string> 
                                 Custom aspect ratios list
          Comma separated list of aspect ratios which will be added in the
          interface's aspect ratio list.

                                 (default enabled)
          This allows proper handling of HDTV-1080 video format even if broken
          encoder incorrectly sets height to 1088 lines. You should only
          disable this option if your video has a non-standard format requiring
          all 1088 lines.

                                 Video alignment
          Enforce the alignment of the video in its window. By default (0) it
          will be centered (0=center, 1=left, 2=right, 4=top, 8=bottom, you can
          also use combinations of these values, like 6=4+2 meaning top-right).
      --zoom=<float [-340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000 .. 340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000]>

                                 Video output module
          This is the the video output method used by VLC. The default behavior
          is to automatically select the best method available.
      --video-filter=<string>    Video filter module
          This adds post-processing filters to enhance the picture quality, for
          instance deinterlacing, or distort the video.

          VLC can display messages on the video. This is called OSD (On Screen
          Display).
      --text-renderer={any,freetype,tdummy,sapi,none} 
                                 Text rendering module
          VLC normally uses Freetype for rendering, but this allows you to use
          svg for instance.
   Subtitles:
      --sub-file=<string>        Use subtitle file
          Load this subtitle file. To be used when autodetect cannot detect

                                 (default enabled)
          Disable all lua plugins

 Decoders
 This option can be used to alter the way VLC selects its codecs (decompression methods). Only advanced users should alter this option as it can break playback of all your streams.
      --codec=<string>           Preferred decoders list
          List of codecs that VLC will use in priority. For instance,
          'dummy,a52' will try the dummy and a52 codecs before trying the other

          as a global option unless you really know what you are doing.
      --demux={any,mp4,avi,asf,es,flacsys,mpc,nuv,tta,wav,caf,sid,sap,ogg,mkv,live555,smf,adaptive,ts,xa,gme,aiff,directory,rawvid,image,pva,voc,mod,au,nsv,ps,ty,h26x,h26x,dvdnav,libbluray,mpgv,mjpeg,rawdv,demux_cdg,nsc,webvtt,ttml,avcodec,ps,vobsub,demux_stl,vc1,es,subtitle,real,demuxdump,stats,rawaud,webvtt,none} 
                                 Demux module
          Demultiplexers are used to separate the "elementary" streams (like
          audio and video streams). You can use it if the correct demuxer is
          not automatically detected. You should not set this as a global
          option unless you really know what you are doing.

          Play locally the stream while streaming it.
      --sout-keep, --no-sout-keep 
                                 Keep stream output open
                                 (default disabled)
          This allows you to keep an unique stream output instance across
          multiple playlist item (automatically insert the gather stream output
          if not specified)
      --sout-all, --no-sout-all  Enable streaming of all ES

                                 Access output module
          This is a legacy entry to let you configure access output modules
      --ttl=<integer>            Hop limit (TTL)
          This is the hop limit (also known as "Time-To-Live" or TTL) of the
          multicast packets sent by the stream output (-1 = use operating
          system built-in default).
      --miface=<string>          Multicast output interface
          Default multicast interface. This overrides the routing table.
      --dscp=<integer>           DiffServ Code Point

          Type Of Service, or IPv6 Traffic Class). This is used for network
          Quality of Service.
      --packetizer={any,aes3,theora,speex,lpcm,rawvideo,vorbis,spudec,svcdsub,mpegvideo,cvdsub,mpeg4video,vc1,mpeg4audio,mlp,flac,h264,hevc,avcodec,oggspots,mpegaudio,a52,dts,copy,none} 
                                 Preferred packetizer list
          This allows you to select the order in which VLC will choose its
          packetizers.

 Miscellaneous
 These options allow you to select default modules. Leave these alone unless you really know what you are doing.
   Special modules:
      --vod-server={any,stream_out_rtp,rtsp,none} 
                                 VoD server module
          You can select which VoD server module you want to use. Set this to
          'vod_rtsp' to switch back to the old, legacy module.
   Plugins:
      --plugins-cache, --no-plugins-cache 
                                 Use a plugins cache
                                 (default enabled)
          Use a plugins cache which will greatly improve the startup time of
          VLC.
      --plugins-scan, --no-plugins-scan 
                                 Scan for new plugins
                                 (default enabled)
          Scan plugin directories for new plugins at startup. This increases
          the startup time of VLC.
      --keystore=<string>        Preferred keystore list
          List of keystores that VLC will use in priority.
   Performance options:
      --high-priority, --no-high-priority 
                                 Increase the priority of the process
                                 (default disabled)
          Increasing the priority of the process will very likely improve your
          playing experience as it allows VLC not to be disturbed by other
          applications that could otherwise take too much processor time.
          However be advised that in certain circumstances (bugs) VLC could
          take all the processor time and render the whole system unresponsive
          which might require a reboot of your machine.

                                 (default disabled)
          VLC will keep playing the playlist indefinitely.
  -R, --repeat, --no-repeat      Repeat current item
                                 (default disabled)
          VLC will keep playing the current playlist item.
      --play-and-exit, --no-play-and-exit 
                                 Play and exit
                                 (default disabled)

                                 (default disabled)
          Allowing only one running instance of VLC can sometimes be useful,
          for example if you associated VLC with some media types and you don't
          want a new instance of VLC to be opened each time you open a file in
          your file manager. This option will allow you to play the file with
          the already running instance or enqueue it.
      --started-from-file, --no-started-from-file 
                                 VLC is started from file association

          and keep playing current item.
      --media-library, --no-media-library 
                                 Use media library
                                 (default disabled)
          The media library is automatically saved and reloaded each time you
          start VLC.
      --playlist-tree, --no-playlist-tree 
                                 Display playlist tree
                                 (default disabled)
          The playlist can use a tree to categorize some items, like the
          contents of a directory.
      --open=<string>            Default stream
          This stream will always be opened at VLC startup.
